Yesterday I popped into H and used 1 of my 6 RTW/shoe quota for the year for a non-sustainable brand. I got this gorgeous cashmere cardigan that I know I will enjoy wearing it.

Also taking home this Kelly 25 today. It’s an amazing color and finally gold will stick in my handbag wardrobe. This is my fourth gold colored Birkin or Kelly, and it is the only one that I can imagine keeping for a longtime!

I love so much about your post and goals. FWIW, my two Hermes bags are a 38cm Trim (Indigo box) and a 35cm Bolide (black, leather unknown but very rigid). Because of those two, I've talked myself out of buying many other bags because I know that I'd keep coming back to the Hermes.

You know we will need to see that indigo box trim at some point....sounds amazing!!! :biggrin:

I don't think I'll ever be a minimalist. I don't feel I have to stay at a certain number, but it is important that things are getting used.

I need to join in the freezer/larder challenge. I cleaned out my refrigerator and pantry, getting rid of a bunch of things I'll never use. Now that I don't cook much, there is a lot of stuff in the freezer I need to either use or throw away. It hurts me to throw things away. It's like throwing money away.

It hurts me too to throw away food. Now i say to myself, "Pretend you ate it." You could add "and it was delicious," if you like.

These Coach bags aren’t from my closet. My mother passed them on to me, and I gave them some TLC. They’re from the mid-90s and both were made in the United States. The black one is an original Willis bag. The brown one was a favorite of my mother’s. I remember she wore that one continuously for several years.

Book recommendation: The Paris Architect, by Charles Balfoure

It’s about an atheist French architect during the Occupation in Paris during WWII. He grudgingly accepts work from a wealthy Gentile to design ingenious secret hiding places for Jews, all while he and the Gentile work directly with the Reich in designing and building arms factories. As he helps his fellow humans escape death, he learns a lot about himself—-that he has courage despite his immense fear of getting caught and tortured. The book is full of suspense; I even held my breath at some points as I read on to see what happened next.

My handbag today, LV SpeedyB 25:
